Description:
The corporate scandals in recent years have highlighted the need for the development of corporate and legal standards for ethical conduct in business. The perceived lack of integrity in the business world, and the lack of concern for the consumer at that time, heightened demands for businesses to develop a stronger focus on ethics in business. This course considers the concept of ethics and its role in today's corporate culture. It looks at the impact of business ethics on both the individual and the organization and covers how the use of an ethical framework can promote ethically driven behavior. The course also focuses on how the learner can use an ethical filter to help negotiate ethical dilemmas.
